Answer 1

Yeah she was called Pina (I don't know where I got that from),
My mum said I started talking about her when I was 3, I'm an only child so I think its pretty normal for us to have them. Id play with I was on my own, Id set up make-believe picnics with her in my room....my mum said I would happily sit for hours talking away to her like she was real. When I did something wrong or bold Id blame her "it wasn't me it was Pina". When I started primary school I brought her for a while, kinda as a comfort blanket, but when I made some real friends she slowly disappeared....

Answer 2

I had two imaginary friends called Kissylips & Terry.
They were ghost-like creature's
They lived under my bed when I was 7yrs old
They came to me in a dream & frightend off all ghost, bogey men etc.
We used to talk about stuff like what we were going to do to kids at school who were nasty to me
I told my parents & they thought it was funny
Terry never liked my parents kissylips felt sorry for them
They stayed with me until I was 14yrs old ( I have no idea why they left they never told me)

And they have never come back :o)

Answer 3

I use to have an imaginary cowboy as a friend.
I use to love westerns and I used to like seeing
them gathered around a fire with tin plates eating
baked beens or "grub".

So, I got my grandmother to find me a tin cup and tin plate. She did, and I was happy. I sat, talked
and ate with my imaginary friend day after day.

Answer 4

I'd rather not say how he came into my life, too painful, I was 3 years old, his name was Archie-pools, we did everything together he was my best friend, I never went anywhere without him and would never let anyone sit at the side of me on the bus in case they squashed him, not that they could have done really as I saw him a this huge German Shepherd dog, I didn't have to tell anyone about him they all knew and used to laugh at me except for my mom who just put up with it as she said I'd grow out of it, Archie-pools has never left me really, I still think about him even today and every time I see a huge German Shepherd dog I catch my breath and say to myself, Archie-pools. ok crazy maybe, but some friends you never forget.

Answer 5

When I was at school I had an invisible pet sheep called Eric and we had lots of fun smoking in the woods until I had to see the school psychologist, who eventually persuaded me that Eric would be better on a farm and not smoking strange smelling roll ups in the woods with me.

I never saw him or Eric again

Answer 6

I had a friend named michael......when i was in elementary school. I think it was becasue i had an abusive stepmom and when i would go to my room....we would talk or play games sometimes we would argue. We were very competative which sounds weird i guess to be competative with you imaginary friend. He went away when i moved out of my dad's house and lived with my mom.

Answer 7

When we had long car journeys I had this friend who'd run along next to me by the car, and he could jump up trees and he'd run along the side of lorries and everything! I was probably about seven to the age of ten or something, and he didn't have a name, and I didn't tell anyone about him. He just had black hair and really really long legs, and he could run 100 m/p/h! Have't seen him in ages!

Answer 8
